Perhaps it's just me; however, the word incoherence just came to mind.
I understand, it was not a well thought out sentence. What I was trying to say is the following:
When arguing, I come across the claim that there is evidence for god very often.
I present the argument that there is no evidence to make sure that the theist understands that the statement "there is no evidence towards god" is true. This prevents the theist from making claims that there is evidence farther in the argument.
¨I contend that we are both atheists, I just believe in one fewer god than you. When you understand why you dismiss all other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.¨
